A tiny app I made that gets the MD5 hash code for an input file. I've tried it out on various files and it hasn't given me an erroneous one yet. If you use it and it computes an incorrect code please lemme know. Otherwise, enjoy the prog and I hope it's useful to somebody. It's just a simple exe with a GUI, nothing spectacular.

JET issues. Program failed to launch.

Side Note:
Since there is a plethora of requests for "test my X" and they are normally in EXE format instead of code, I've allocated a spare box to blow up with the potential viruses.

Sounds explosive.

I did that once. I did a full install of Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP1 with only the updates up until SP1. Then i installed only my modem drivers, everything else was on the default settings. Almost instantly I was flooded by different things. I can't remember too wel but I can remember it started with error messages in applications, then i couldn't open the command prompt. I kept getting popups and other stuff. Then my background changed

. And it finished in a message saying "Your system is being shutdown, please save work. Authority: WinNT\\System" Then it counted 30 seconds and rebooted.

It was fun but it shows that you should always get Microsoft updates, use a firewalla and antivirus, and be wary of potential attacks.

i have a similar box IR to test my apps and other peoples apps, i call my box return-1; back to the topic people should post their source code along with their EXE's

Guys, my primary reason for the "test box" is so if someone does blow it up, I can retaliate. Digital Politics, except my regime is ok in regards to using nuclear weapons in pre-emptive strikes.

The windows updates are a must if you're running windows. The mindset of such a malicous person feeds on the inexperience of end users, most of which do not know how to get updates.

btw: If you are worried about posting code and someone taking it... don't be. I'll help you out in that regard by posting my perl code that does the same thing.

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use 5.8.6;
use strict;
use IO::File;
use Getopt::Long;
use Digest::MD5;

my $myFile = $ARGV[0]; 
my $md5 = Digest::MD5->new;
my $check = 1;

open(FILE, $myFile) or die "Couldn't open $myFile for md5 checksum generation.";
binmode(FILE);
my $sum = $md5->addfile(*FILE)->hexdigest; 
close FILE;

print "\n---------------------------------------------\n";
print "MD5 Checksum of $myFile:\n";
print "$sum\n";
print "---------------------------------------------\n\n";

who in the right mind use the machine that they connect to net to do their day to day serving as test box?......my test box is not even on my network.

Infinite Recursion · Aug 1st, 2006, 9:24 AM

Exactly kruptof. It would be foolish to connect such a test box to a productive network. I move test applications to the test box via a jump drive. The same box will act as both server and client in code that requires such. My comments regarding updates was in response to coldDeath's updateless box.

Well here's the JAR file I compiled from which the EXE was made if that helps you to launch it. I was hoping I could make an EXE that would be readily available so that non Java users could use the prog, but I guess there are some difficulties.

Infinite Recursion · Aug 1st, 2006, 1:34 PM

The jar file works well grimpirate... good work.

Here's a screenshot of the error I get when running the exe.

grimpirate · Aug 1st, 2006, 5:06 PM

ok well THIS executable SHOULD work, but I use it loosely, the JET doesn't do what I thought it did, sooooooo I've lost interest in pursuing it any further. Hopefully, this exe will work.
